Description
Interface defining an arbitrary bijective mapping from R^2 to R^2.

This interface provides methods to define an arbitrary bijective mapping from R^2 to R^2, i.e. from the two-dimensional space of real numbers onto itself, as is representable by the ::double floating point type. The mapping must be bijective, i.e. map a pair of real numbers to exactly one other pair of real numbers an vice versa, to facilitate a working inverse. Bijectiveness also implies completeness, i.e. for every pair of real numbers there must be another pair that is mapped upon them.

Methods' Summary
map Forward 2D mapping function  
mapInverse Inverse 2D mapping function. 
Methods' Details
map
RealPoint2D
map( [in] RealPoint2D  aPoint );

Description
Forward 2D mapping function
mapInverse
RealPoint2D
mapInverse( [in] RealPoint2D  aPoint );

Description
Inverse 2D mapping function.

The following invariant must hold: map(mapInverse(p))=p. This effectively rules out non-bijective mappings.

Apache OpenOffice is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
